Editorial Reviews
From Amazon.com
For those who were sentient when Front Line Assembly released their now-classic discs Caustic Grip and Tactical Neural Implant, it's hard not to feel a bit nostalgic listening to Monument. A collection of rare B-sides and remixes primarily from that fertile early-'90s time period, the disc whisks us back to the Gulf War, George Bush, and the days when we could watch new episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Many of the old electro stomps--replete with martial beats, ruthless bass synth, and screamed vocals--are here, including a remixed "Overkill" (still sounding as aggressive and thrilling as ever), a sleeker "Resist," and a truly funky take on "The Blade." Whether you enjoy this disc depends a great deal on how you feel about remixes, but longtime FLA collaborator Greg Reely (who also worked on Monument's 1997 prequel, Reclamation) has done an admirable job, turning out some inventive takes on near-sacred material. --Steve Landau
Chronique amazon.fr
L'Electronic Body Music, genre initié en Europe pas Front 242, a connu deux représentants majeurs à ses début en Amérique du Nord : Skinny Puppy et Front Line Assembly. C'est au second que l'on doit cette compilation de remix et de raretés. Enchaînement de morceaux violents, Monument ramène l'auditeur à la période phare de FLA, une époque où l'EBM signifiait encore quelque chose en termes de violence et d'engagement musical. Les remix proposés ne valent pas toujours l'original, mais la puissance est toujours au rendez-vous. En plus d'être le souvenir d'une époque révolue, cette compilation se pose comme un complément idéal à la discographie d'un des plus grands groupes du genre. --Romaric Bullier
